Cross Academy….
I looked up at the large building, feeling even more awkward then before. Just the look of this place told me that I wasn't going to fit in.
"I wonder where the head honcho is."
I walked slowly, and gracefully towards a building that read. "Sun Dorms".
What the heck does that mean?! Oh right, daytime classes are for humans and nighttime classes are for vampires. I see, so that's how they separate them.
I heard someone walking towards me, before I could turn around, I felt something cold and hard being pressed to my head….
A gun?
"Who are you and what are you doing here?" The voice sounded like a man.
'She doesn't smell like a blood sucker….but she doesn't smell human either, what the hell is this thing?' I heard him say in him say in his head.
Thing?! What a rude mouth this one has! Hmm….smells like a vampire, yum.
"My name is Zeverai Links, I am going to be a new student here. You were correct, I am neither human nor vampire. And I am a GIRL, so please to think of me as a thing. Thank you." I answered as politely as possible.
I could feel his emotions shift in his head as he grasped what I had told him.
'What the hell? How did she know what I was thinking?!'
I was just about to answer and calm him down at the same time, when another voice stopped me.
'Oh no, what's Zero doing now?'
"Zero! Don't hurt her! She has an appointment here with the headmaster!" I heard a girl yell.
I suddenly felt the gun on my head disappear. I turned around slowly.
In front of me was…a small brown haired girl, and….an albino boy? No, his hair was white, but he didn't look albino. How strange, he's kinda hot though.
"Hello! I'm Yuuki Cross!" The small girl said, extending her hand.
'Wow, she's beautiful. I'm guessing that she is a vampire.'
I took her hand smiling and said,
"Hello Yuuki, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Zeverai Links, and no I'm not a vampire."
I chuckled a little as I watched her expression change. Yes, she was shocked. Then again, that is what my gift tends to do at times. I understand that it would probably be wiser to keep it a secret, but it's just too fun seeing either their thoughts or their expressions!
And ever since I lost my parents, I guess I just stopped caring altogether.
I was so lost in my own thoughts that I was able to listen to hers. Her sudden questioning is what brought me back to the now.
"How did you know what I was thinking?" She asked cocking her head to the side.
"I can read your mind." I answered with indifference.
'She can read minds?! How?! I've only heard of elite vampires being able to do things like this!'
Yade yada, etc, ect. This girl went on and on! I focused my attention on the boy now, trying to drown out every question and accusation the small girl was thinking. Now the boy…..Zero was it? His thoughts were a tad interesting.
'Not a bloodsucker? Then what the hell is she? I've never heard of anything like this before. And what about her scent? Her blood…I want some of it! No! I'm not going to! I'm not going to be the same as those damn vampires!'
Ha-ha! He reminds me of Gollum from Lord of the Rings. He has a double personality how fun!
"Hey Yuuki, sorry to interrupt your thoughts, but I would really like to go sign in or whatever it is that you do here."
"Oh! Sure, follow me please."
I followed as she led the way. I could feel Zero's emotions rushing through him as he walked behind me. How can one person have so many feelings going on at the same time? Truly interesting, must make a note of that.
Though after the first two minutes of walking, I did grow weary of his constant change, so I decided to make one for him. I closed my eyes, focusing on all the textures of emotion around me.
They flowed through my body, filling me with everything he was feeling, everything he was. In a sense I was becoming one with his feelings. Now, I had to control them, filter them out one at a time.
I decided it would be best to toss out anger and confusion, for now. I concentrated on making myself feel at peace, so that slowly it would make its way through my body and into his.
In the span of about three minutes, I could feel my calm energy take effect. The sounds of his steps were less rough, smoother. The aura around him changed from being a negative mess to peaceful.
I sighed.
I opened my eyes to see where the young girl had led me. I realized that now I stood in front of a door.
"We're here already?" I asked confused.
Damn! If I hadn't been so focused on Johnny Nobody behind me, I could have analyzed my surroundings in case I ever needed to find this place on my own!
Oh well…at least he's calm now. Not like he'll ever thank me though. Sigh, all that work for nothing.
Maybe I can make him feel warm and fuzzy later, so I'll be able to take some blood. I mean, mines not the only one that smells good.
Yeah, if you're wondering I did feed before I came here. I found some level E vampire, or rather he found me. But I'm picky when it comes to blood, his just wasn't up to my standards. Oh well, at least I'm not thirsty right?
The short girl knocked on the door, stepped back, and about two seconds later, I heard another voice from the inside telling us to enter. It was male, but it was strangely cheerful. This was one guy who I didn't have to waste my powers on.
